Location: Las Vegas, NV		Do my eyes deceive me or does this Plymouth magically turn into a Plodge at about 1:20 into the scene?

Location: Indianapolis, IN		Not only did it turn into a Plodge, but a 4 door Plodge. I noticed that they either painted or taped the rear door handles.

Location: Oakley, Ill		Not only that, but they switched back and forth a couple times. What a bunch of crap--that Plymouth, or that Plodge were both capable of running and hiding from the Opel, even if they only had the 318. Torsionbar Forward look cars handled exeedingly well, and the Opel just didn't have the kind of power ot torque that and American V-8 had.

Location: Brooklyn NY		That's a bit of cinema at its finest!! I enjoyed it. I love watching the old cars out of control/driving on the edge.

Stuff like that cracks me up. I love the way they painted the '58 side trim right over the Plodge trim. Nice....
